Owww man, that sounds like fun! Chie and Mitsuru! Or Yukiko! I wonder if Yukari was not that popular or something? Even Elizabeth made it and other Persona 3 girls.The Wykydtron said:
Anyway, I'm glad they have Story mode and all that, unlike Capcom's fighters where singleplayers are so bareboned.
I only have Soul calibur 4, fight night round 4, DOA4, Virtual Fighter 5 and EA's MMA (in which the online doesn't work anymore) on the Xbox. Sorry!
Exactly what I did haha. I remember Taokaka's supermove was hard to dodge unless you sit down. Took a few matches for my friend to get it = a lot of free wins!!Dreiko said:
I will wait to get that new Blazblue then, instead of Continumn Shift 42156352983+. Tager's air grab sounds awesome!! Man, the big guy is hard to master but once you do, it's hard to hurt him.
...Honestly?
Probably Power Stone 2 from back in the Dreamcast days. That was so fun. Might be just nostalgia though.
Even though i've played such things as BlazBlue, king of fighters, street fighter and MvC series, meh, they all end up leaving me with something I genuinely dislike so badly.
Hrm, I also liked the Ninja Storm games. Simple silly fun, like with the Smash Bros series.

Hehe, there's just 2 continuum shifts games, CS1 (which got a free downloadable patch balance uptdate into CS2) and CS Extend.
Either way, the new game will be out in october in Japan and next year (q1 presumably) for the west so yeah, if you've been out for years might as well wait for it. Though...I do think extend's an awesome game and if you wanted to warm up for BB again it'd be a great thing. It's pretty cheap too by now, less than $20 new.
Oh and yeah, Tager's his best self in Chronophantasma and so is tao actually, here's some good footage of that:
Yeah I was exaggerating. I followed the news of Blazblue up to the release of Extend then I got caught with other games. I was waiting for a new game with at least 6-7 more characters compared to Calamity trigger.Dreiko said:
2014 sounds fine. I can wait while working through my backlog.
As far as chars go, Extend has a total of 19 which Cp brings to 25. CT having just 12 I'd say even EX is a considerable leap.
While there has been a large amount of fighting games that I've played and enjoyed through the years, there is only one that I get a real feeling of accomplishment from winning, Guilt Gear. And if you have to ask which version, my answer is yes but the next one coming looks pretty awesome.
And while I'm not one who obsesses over graphics, I mean I did choose guilty gear for this after all, I will admit that something was lost watching this:
Btw I main Slayer and Axl.

Mortal Kombat 9. I recently got a copy of the game (I've always been a fan of MK. UMK3 is the shiznit!) into it thanks to a friend's generosity, I've already learned extremely damaging combos with my favorite characters like Sektor, Johnny Cage and Skarlet. I was even undefeated in online ranked matches for a while. I was 11 - 0 and while I wasn't doing extremely well against a well-versed Sub Zero, I still had the opportunity to make a comeback. However the match disconnected and it counted as a loss. But I digress.
UMvC3. I've stopped playing it as fervishly as I used to, but I still watch and get hype at tournament matches.
On that note, MvC2. Ever since I made my friend watch the highly inspirational Justin Wong comeback video:
<youtube=gVmc5ZepdVs>
he bought it on PSN and we played it nonstop for at least 4 hours. It was one of the most fun games I've ever played.
I absolutely adore mascot fighters, so when I played PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale at a friend's house I immediately went out the next day and bought it. My main characters are Evil Cole and Raiden.

Street Fighter III Third Strike is my undisputed favorite.
The flow of combat is so well done, along with incredible animations. It just FEELS right for martial arts action in the 2D fighter style. The flow is so amazing and the controls are so refined. No other fighter has matched this level yet, and I really hope to see a return of it in the future. In a way Street Fighter IV was a disappointment in the combat flow, but it has it's own appeal and I've grown to like it as well.
BlazBlue comes in at a second, due to all the advances it's made with 2D combat. Mainly I like the ability to still hit an opponent on the ground and dodge roll out of being knocked down. Also the way they handle grabs is great.

Injustice: Gods Among Us was about the only fighting game I could get into decently. With the mechanics being simple enough for me to grasp and do some of the basic (And even some of the more advanced) combos. However I had to play it on the easier modes as I was renting it and fighting games tend not to be my forte.
I've also been getting into Spartacus: Legends of the Arena. However: That game is less "technique" and more "Spam attacks until one of you is dead."

Order-Sol, really? Then I have to ask do you play him the normal way or my friend's silly-as-hell-but-dang-you-still-beat-me way that doesn't use his charge meter what so ever?Red X said:I screamed like a little girl when i first saw this! I'm like the biggest GG fan around! Graphically it seems more impressive than most fighting games released now that only have 3 visual styles.blood77 said:While there has been a large amount of fighting games that I've played and enjoyed through the years, there is only one that I get a real feeling of accomplishment from winning, Guilt Gear.

Order-Sol is my main man!
Oh god. That one question I can't possibly answer anymore.
I'm really torn up between the BlazBlue series and Soulcalibur 2. BlazBlue for story, Soulcalibur for gameplay. I suppose my favourite fighting game would be the two of them stapled together.

Blazblue is likely my favorite franchise however all system arc games are awesome. I also enjoy MVC 3 and the eternal classic SF2.
I also use Order Sol lol. We should do mirrors, my psn is Dreikoo and also I sub Slayer.
O-Sol combos are very nice even without charge, Gun blaze>JH>JD>JH>JD>Bandit Revolver does half life mid-screen against most chars.

Super Smash Bros. (N64)
Super Smash Bros. Melee (Gamecube)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)
Mortal Kombat (Ps3)
Persona 4 Arena (Ps3)
They're all easy to pick up with fairly simple specials and combos but still offer plenty of room for serious play.
